Can Trump's brazen pursuit of WH enrichment be stopped? Fareed's Take [View all]



CNN’s Fareed Zakaria compares Donald Trump’s first term in office to his second, less-constrained presidency. Without the staffing guardrails that existed in Trump 1.0, Trump 2.0 has exhibited an increased comfort level with monetizing the presidency. Fareed examines what it would take to prevent personal enrichment in future presidencies.

Also, Fareed speaks with New York Times chief political analyst, Nate Cohn, about why Trump isn't backing down in the face of low approval ratings.
